    Normally Asda sizes are true. I've ordered my normal size but my Mums ordered a size up to ensure she can get a big wooly underneath.

    HTH, x

    Oh I don't need another coat but that purple one is calling to me, and at that price it's amazing value. I think my 85 year old neighbour would love one too, she was talking about getting a purple coat in Matalan but the one she saw on a TV show hasn't made it to the stores yet...
